BRAZIL NEWS

ISRAELI "KING OF EXTASIS" ARRESTED IN RIO DE JANEIROYORAM EL AL WAS WALKING ALONG IPANEMA BEACHOn Dec 23, the Brazilian Federal Police arrested El Al Yoram as he strolled along the posh Ipanema beach in Rio de Janeiro.(Maybe he was looking for that famous "girl of Ipanema"). Yoram was on the DEA's most wanted list since 2004 after attempting to smuggle 1.4 million "Extasis" pills into the United States. On that occassion the contraband was confiscated by the DEA (Drug Enforcement Agency). It is a common practice for Extasis dealers to be paid by the buyers even if the cargo is confiscated and Yoram made an audatious move as he travelled illegally into the U.S to collect the cash.Apparently Yoram collected some of the cash and fled to Punta del Este, Uruguay one of the most exclusive beach resorts in South America. At this point Yoram had arrest warrants from the Israeli police, DEA, Interpol and was arrested by the Uruguayan police and was sent into detention at the "Libertad" jail. On Oct 4, 2005 , Yoram escaped from the jail at 2:00 a.m after his brother paid a prison guard US$100,000 as a bribe. On that night, men posing as police officers arrived at the jail and said that Yoram was to be transferred to another facility. The prison guard authorized Yoram`s exit that immediately fled with Nissim to Brazil.Yoram had become the world`s most wanted Extasis trafficker after taking over from Zeev Rosenstein two years ago. Yoram ordered Rosenstein`s assassination and during the attack three people died. However, Rosenstein got the message and went out of the business.According to Interpol,the consumption of Extasis or Metilendioximetanfetamine(MDMA), has been increasing specially among the followers of "Rave" electronic music, mostly teenagers, young adults and also among older adults.
